Finished ninth two runs ago in a hurdle (3218m) at Kilbeggan. Bounced back last time when he saluted in a novice hurdle (3419m) at Killarney. Could prove hard to beat.

Was unplaced two back in a novice hurdle (3822m) at Kilbeggan. Made amends last time to greet the judge in a novice hurdle (3520m) at Downpatrick by 1.3 lengths. Only needs to jump well to be right in the finish.

Filled a minor prize last start in a novice hurdle (3419m) at Killarney. That followed success in a maiden hurdle (3218m) at Galway by 4.5 lengths. Worth another chance.

Found the frame two back in a hurdle (3419m) at Clonmel then improved nicely last time to score by 1.5 lengths in a hurdle (3419m) at Limerick. Certainly worth including.

Hasn't fired since breaking his maiden status earlier this campaign, last start finishing sixth in a hurdle (3218m) at Galway. Sharp improvement needed.

Finished fourth two runs ago in a novice hurdle (3520m) at Downpatrick. Was far more impressive last time when he finished second in a novice hurdle (3520m) at Downpatrick. Cannot be left out.

Mixed fortunes this prep. Failed to complete the course when second-up in a hurdle (3922m) at Hereford. Opened the campaign with a second in a hurdle (3218m) at Plumpton, beaten 4 lengths. Likely to make amends for the last start mishap.

Improved on his sixth on the flat two runs back when a 4 length fifth, again on the flat, last time out over 2011m at Leopardstown. Might find this a bit too tough.

Three-year-old gelding who was well held last time when fifth in a hurdle (3218m) at Punchestown. Hard to have on poor recent efforts.
